2x2+20x-224=0

Solution for 2x2+20x-224=0 equation:

2x^2+20x-224=0

a = 2; b = 20; c = -224;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 202-4·2·(-224)
Δ = 2192
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{2192}=\sqrt{16*137}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{137}=4\sqrt{137}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(20)-4\sqrt{137}}{2*2}=\frac{-20-4\sqrt{137}}{4}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(20)+4\sqrt{137}}{2*2}=\frac{-20+4\sqrt{137}}{4}
